Shamim Ahmed Khan: A Delectable Treat in Ragas [Magnasound C4HI0068] a cassette recorded and released in India in 1989

Shamim Ahmed Khan (1938-2012) was a disciple of Ravi Shankar. He seemed to be on excellent terms with his teacher and followed him to California when Raviji opened a school there. Khan released relatively few records during his lifetime. This cassette was recorded with Nayan Ghosh on tabla.

I appreciate your work and I think it would be really nice if you could upload the 24 Bit Flac Versions as you used to do (like from this Cassette as well). I especially enjoyed those with round about 2800 kbit/s. Really nice. I think the Post of the Shivkimar Sharma and Hariprasad Chaurasia Record was the last of this kind.In my opinion this hole Blog is a real treasure.Keep up with the good work.
